Introduction:
Lymphangiomas constitute a distinct subtype of benign lymphatic malformation. The occurrence of pancreatic involvement is exceedingly infrequent. Patients with this disease typically remain asymptomatic. Surgical resection serves as the primary therapeutic modality.
Case Presentation:
A female patient, aged 42, was revealed to have a mass located at the back of the pancreas and occupying the body of the pancreas during imaging examinations. As a result, she underwent laparoscopic surgery for resection.
Clinical Discussion:
Lymphangioma is a congenital aberration of the lymphatic vessels without malignant properties. Patients typically present without symptoms, and laparoscopic surgery is the primary treatment approach. We have focused our discussion on the etiology, diagnosis, and management of this condition.
Conclusion:
Pancreatic lymphangioma, a clinical entity of rarity, often manifests with nonspecific symptoms. We believe that laparoscopic surgery is the preferred option for treating such diseases.
